"We've built a solid foundation for the future of Diablo III and we're focused on staying true to the core essence of the game, while pushing boundaries to evolve gameplay in ways that will keep players like you excited,"

...I think his doctor prescribed the wrong meds.

I am intrested to see how a game that heavily used the mouse will work with a controller.

Unless they would allow you to take your PC characters and play them on console, No thanks. Probably No thanks even if they do.

 

[Vorador2]

Pfff still not worth it. Worst 60€ i ever spent.

Too bad Diablo 3 was garbage.
I'd rather be able to play Diablo 2 on my consoles.

"We hope you'll agree that <...> we're only just getting started."
That's a very kind way to say the game's unfinished

Years 1011 -1013 : Hail to the crappy games baby:
I started to play duke nukem 3d atomic because it's a great game even after all those years lol!!
Of course a few exceptions but mainly crappy years so far

"Will retain the core essence" but not the current gen PC graphics. GTX 780 ftw.

 

[fimbulvinter]

That essence being that all too familiar essence of a portable latrine at an outdoor festival in summer.

So, XBoxOne is coming out about Sep/Oct and they are shipping in Sep. for the 360, and the XBox1 will not play 360 games!!

 

[Stimpack]

The essence they're referring to must be "disappointment".

 

[ubercake]

It will operate much like 'Happy Wars' on the 360.

"we're focused on staying true to the core essence of the game"
that means you have to be connected online 24/7 to play this game...right?

 

[dalethepcman]

If this can be played without an internet connection, then I might actually purchase Diablo 3. I would buy a used copy though because honestly, blizzard doesn't deserve my money.

Recently went back to research if this game was finally ready to play (on the PC). Namely itemization, drop rate and AH requirement. *sigh* Afraid not and it can't change at this point. Most people have jumped ship and of the people left... too many support the AH.
Console will not have either Gold or Real Money AH. That will directly affect drop rate. So as long as the control scheme is good, I would guess the experience would be better than the PC?
Still not buying it though. I'd rather eat someone else's vomit (thats worse than eating your own right?) than buy into that disappointing error 37 again.

 

[Gulli]

Diablo 3 is actually one of the few games I'd rather play on consoles, man does your wrist hurt after an hour of playing the game on PC...

 

[opmopadop]

So there is going to be a new Xbox console (thats not backwards compat) out around the same time this game comes out... Not a dmart business move.

 

[quangluu96]

After a year, more than half of the players quitted, and still 60$? Pathetic, just buy torchlight 2 for pc or stay away from D3 for consoles.

 

[StormOfRazors]

September 3 hey.... They can have Diablo on consoles all they want, I know that I'd much rather be playing Rome 2 total war on PC on the same day

 

[tinmann]

I tried the demo and was really disappointed. I guess I was expecting too much but after all that time I should have gotten more. A lot more. The graphics were not mind blowing by any stretch and the game play was more of the same. The sale probably didn't quite meet their sales expectations and now they are going to target an new base to make back all the profits they expected to make of the PC sales and auction houses but didn't. It was on the cheap a while back and I passed and bought a Titan Quest bundle instead.
